Breaking Down the Barriers to Inclusion: 

Inclusion sounds amazing in theory—but in practice? It can feel scary, complicated, and even a little overwhelming. In today’s episode, I’m addressing into the real-world barriers that can stand in the way of building inclusive classrooms… and sharing what we can do to push past them. From time constraints and unclear roles to limited resources and resistance from staff, we’re talking about the tough stuff—and how to respond with creativity, teamwork, and intention.

"Inclusion isn’t easy—but it’s absolutely worth it."

After listening to this week's episode, you’ll walk away with a knowledge of common barriers keeping us from implementing inclusion and practical tips you can implement right away, whether you're a new special education teacher or a veteran navigating a tough team dynamic.

What You'll Learn:

  • Common barriers to inclusion 
    • Administration
    • Teachers
    • Students
  • How to advocate for time to collaborate with general education teachers
  • Tips for clarifying roles and responsibilities on inclusion teams
  • The importance of building a culture of belonging for all students
